Now is the best time to schedule your Stampin' Up class...

If you have not hosted your own Stampin' Up class - you are missing out. I am sure we can all agree that we love to get all of our Girlfriends together. We typically meet for coffee, cocktails, maybe a movie. But there is nothing like getting together to do something you love like making cards or scrapbooking. You get to try out the latest products and learn new techniques.

Being creative with the people we love is so much fun. You can either copy my exact design or as they say on American Idol "make it your own".

Why is it the best time to schedule your own Stampin' Up class? Because the new Idea Book and catalog is coming out on July 1st and the Stampin Up Convention is in August. This means that I will have lots of new things to share with you - it also means that my schedule will fill up fast. So don't delay in booking your date and time with me.

What do you get as a Hostess?

When you host a qualifying class, you'll earn a Free products that are available only to Hostesses. You will also earn free money to put towards Stampin' Up product as well as a Free Idea book and Catalog.

Do you want to Host a class, but feel as though you don't have the space?

You can hostess the class at my house. I live in Cranston (right in the middle of the state) and can hold up to 9 people and would love to accommodate your friends. Let me do the cleaning and the class prep - you just need to provide the snacks, beverages and the friends!

There are several different types of classes offered - the most common is the Make 4 - where you and your friends will make 4 cards for $5.00. Scrapbooking and other project type classes are also offered, we would need to discuss what you had in mind to set the price.

At $5.00 per person this is an inexpensive night out for you and your friends. Contact me to schedule a class. stampingdanielle@yahoo.com

Happy Bunny

My friend Linda made this really cute happy bunny card. The bunny was made all with punches - different sized circle and oval punches.



I think this card is so cute - I hope you like it as much as I do.

Chicks and Chocolates and Jellybeans - OH MY!

WOW! It has been a long time since I posted. I hope that I can redeem myself with these three really cute projects that we made in my last class.



The first project is a Tiny Treat Basket I found this project on Splitcoast and knew that you would love it. The supplies used were:
* 5"x 5" piece of cardstock
* Additional cardstock for punches
* Four 2" x 1 1/2" pieces patterned paper
* Round Scallop Punch
* Circle Punch
* Cardstock strip for handle
* Adhesive
* Peppermint Patties


The next project is a Peek-a-boo Treat holder. I found this one on splitcoast also. Inside my treat holder I choose to use fun sized skittles packs instead of chocolate. The supplies used for this project were:
* 4 1/4" x 11" piece of cardstock
* Small treat
* Circle punch
* Adhesive
* Cardstock, stamps, ink and embellishments to decorate


The final project is a Jelly Bean holder. This project I copied from my friend Liz. We used the BigShot Top Note Die to cut the topper to the bag. The supplies used for this project were:
* 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of cardstock
* small slot punch
* Twill Ribbon
* Cardstock, Stamps, ink and embellishments to decorate


These projects are easy to make and have a big wow factor. I hope you enjoyed them as much as I did!

Thanks to my hubby for taking the pictures!
